    I am looking to purchase a 1978 Honda CB750K in great condition but would like to put on one of my Honda SOHC 750 Super Sport tanks. Will it fit right onto the frame? My Super sport tanks that I have I believe are between 76 and 78'.

    3d printing parts

    I've recently got into doing 3D printing and am experimenting with parts for my cafe build. I'm currently printing some seat spacer parts and next is making a post to put on my custom seat so I can lock it. I left the lock that's attached to the frame but the seat which has the male end is...

    Vfr rims and brakes on 79 CB750F?

    Good afternoon everyone! So, today I purchased a sport kit for my 750 (very excited!) as well as a set of rims and tires off of a Honda VFR. I believe it was a 750 as well but I can't be sure. I was wondering if anyone had success fitting these type of wheels onto a Cb750? I am already...

    Will this work

    1st I plan on removing all the Xed out portions and cleaning up the goober welds. The previous owner tuned this into a hard-tail retaining the swing arm. If I cut out a section roughly between the lines and weld in shock mounts will it work. This is kinda what they did with the new Indian...

    My $100 CB750 Bobber build

    Picked up a 1980 CB750 for $100. Runs, drives and has a clean title for once. Got it cheap because, well, it was UGLY and the guy lived in an apartment and had no way to fix it up. Had a couple little issues, throttle was hooked up backwards, carbs needed synced and again, it was ugly as sin...

    1980 triple tree clamp swaps...?

    short: What years/makes/models triple tree upper clamps with bolt onto my '80 CB750? Not worried about any mounting point for gauges or anything like that... long: Hey guys, I picked up a CB750 a couple weeks ago for $100 as I was bored and wanted to build a motorcycle. LOL I've built...

    Sealing up a '78 750K Tank Flap

    Quick check on sanity before I head down this path, but I have a 1978 CB750K with the fuel tank flap cover. I'm not a fan. So plan here is twofold. First, knock the tank in and down a bit for knee inserts and then (the tough part) I'm thinking take off the flap, remove the current fuel cap...

    Hello, new to the cb750 world, diving in and would like some electrical help.

    First of all I'd like to say hi, my name is Rick, and I'm an addict. I really enjoy these old motorcycles though I've been lucky enough over the last three years to skirt heavy electrical issues. I started riding when I was 17, and shifted my weight to older model bikes over the years. This is...

    Making new oil lines

    Hey, I have a '76 750f and one of my oil lines has started leaking. I don't know which one is the supply and which one is the return but they're both old and I'd like to replace the both so that shouldn't matter. my question is how hard is it to make new hoses from the ones I have? Like can I...

    Question on adding fuel injection (micro squirt)

    Ok, I have a great knowledge of engines and how they work. I've seen people using the Micro Squirt system on the CB750 before with success and I'm willing to take the leap. However, knowing how an automotive fuel injection works, there seems to be one key sensor missing for it to work (according...

    Home Zinc Electroplating

    First off let me say that I am by no means a chemist. If I had a chemistry class in High School, I don’t remember any of it. This is a summary of what I’ve read. Electroplating occurs in an electrolytic substance of free ions which are the carriers of electric current. Here this is, Epsom...

    Harbor Freight motorcycle lift and modifications

    After much consideration, I chose the fork-style Harbor Freight lift as a Christmas gift . It took about 20 minutes to bolt it together and it was ready for use. I wanted this type of lift so I could easily remove wheels or forks. But I also had looked at the table type of lifts so I...

    SOHC 750 Crossover pipes

    I built these pipes for my chop. They are straight drags but can be built with collectors for 4-2 pipes that sound way different than what you're useed to. Cylinders 2&3 and 1&4 are paired together. This changes the firing order you hear from both sides of the bike, and aids in exhaust...

    Rear wheel dampers?

    Now I know why my cush drive wont fit my hub. The dampers are for an A-model and/or a F2 Super Sport and my cush drive and hub is a regular K-model. The question is, can I somehow modify my dampers to fit my hub/cush drive, or do I have to get a set of new ones? They're pricey as hell over...

    My Welding/Fixture Table

    I thought I'd show you guys what I've been up to over the weekend (and a couple of nights last week). Last spring I got some heavy steel plates off of Craigslist to use as a top for a smallish welding/fixture table. Here's a picture of them on the temporary stand I made when I first got...
